Landscaping in DuPont & Lakewood, WA
DuPont and Lakewood sit side by side on I-5 at the top of the Nisqually. Both are built on the same glacial gravels, and both come with rules about what you can change. We plan around those rules from the start.

What yards here deal with
- HOA approval in DuPont. Every Northwest Landing homeowner belongs to the residential owners association. Its Property Improvement Committee reviews fences and landscape changes before work starts. Fences generally top out at 6 feet in approved cedar or white vinyl designs. Front yards must stay at least half lawn.
- Gravel ground. DuPont was built on a glacial outwash plain, the Steilacoom Gravels over Vashon till, where the old DuPont explosives plant once stood. Water drains fast.
- Groundwater in Lakewood. Along Clover Creek, permeable gravels sit on clay and till layers. That creates seeps, springs and groundwater flooding that flows toward Gravelly Lake.
- Protected oaks. Lakewood protects its Oregon white oaks by code. Patios, walls and grading near them have to be planned around them.
